Join our vibrant team in Grenchen as Supply Planner (m/f/x) and be part of something extraordinary!

We’re a team of 4, and we’re looking for our next colleague to complete the squad!

This is more than a Supply Planner role; this is a role in which you will take ownership of inventory projections and stock landing management, oversee product status management and related master data governance, and ensure the timely release of purchasing requirements to support supply continuity.

Your mission will be to balance demand, production capacity, inventory strategy, and supply chain capabilities to support business objectives. As a Supply Planner, you will own and drive the Supply Planning, Supply Review, and S&OP processes, ensuring alignment between commercial ambitions and operational capabilities.

Supply Planning & S&OP Management:

• You own the supply planning process for Watch Heads and Finished Watches across a 24-month planning horizon.
• You translate strategic demand assumptions into feasible supply scenarios and production strategies.
• You ensure alignment between demand, supply, inventory, and capacity across the end‑to‑end value chain.
• You define and maintain planning assumptions, constraints, and parameters.
• You act as the primary interface with Sales Planning, ensuring alignment between commercial requirements and supply capabilities.
• You lead the Supply Review process and prepare recommendations to support S&OP decision‑making.
• You consolidate supply plans, capacity assessments, and risk analyses.
• You facilitate cross‑functional alignment across Demand Planning, Operations, Procurement, and Finance.

You present supply scenarios, constraints, and recommendations to management.

Inventory & Capacity Planning

• You analyze future demand and capacity requirements to identify risks and opportunities.
• You develop and evaluate alternative supply scenarios to support informed decision‑making.
• You support long‑term inventory optimization and supply chain resilience initiatives.
• You own inventory projections and stock landing commitments, ensuring alignment with inventory targets and business objectives.
• You review, validate, and release purchasing requirements in line with approved supply plans and inventory strategies.

Performance Monitoring & Continuous Improvement:

• You monitor supply planning performance and planning accuracy.
• You analyze deviations between demand, supply plans, and operational execution.
• You lead initiatives to improve planning processes, systems, and data quality.
• You contribute to the continuous development of planning methodologies, tools, and governance.
• You govern product statuses and planning‑related master data to ensure accuracy, consistency, and reliable planning.

You will fit perfectly into our team if:

• You bring at least 5 years of experience in Production Planning or a similar role within a manufacturing environment.
• You hold a Master’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related discipline, or have an equivalent combination of education and relevant professional experience.
• You have strong knowledge and understanding of industrial operations, production planning and Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) processes - the experience in the watchmaking industry wwhich will be considered an asset.
• You have solid experience with SAP, particularly in Integrated Business Planning (SAP IBP), Material Requirements Planning (MRP), Production Orders, Inventory Management, and Sales Orders.
• You demonstrate advanced Excel, Power BI skills and demonstrate a strong analytical mindset and the ability to translate complex data into actionable insights.
• You are proficient in PowerPoint.
• You are fluent in French and in English, both written and spoken.
